Wetzel County Schools will conduct hearing and speech/language screenings during the 2025-2026 school year. Students enrolled in Wetzel County Universal Pre-K and students enrolled in kindergarten will participate if previous screening results are unavailable. Referrals from teachers and parents, students entering West Virginia schools for the first time, and children failing previous screening will also be screened. The screening aims to identify possible hearing/speech/language problems that could adversely affect a child's academic progress.

The parents will be informed of the results as quickly as possible after the screening. If further assessment is necessary, testing results and recommendations will be sent to the parents within 30 days.

Hearing screening will consist of pure tone testing (assessment of auditory acuity) and impedance testing (assessment of middle ear function). Procedures for the pure tone test will consist of a child listening to three frequencies in each ear and responding by raising his/her hand upon hearing the sound. Impedance tests require no response from the child because all measurements of middle ear function will be made by instruments.

Speech/language screening will include naming pictures, following directions, and answering questions.

Parents who object to their child being screened for hearing, speech/language, or vision problems during the 2025-2026 school year should notify, in writing, Mrs. Michelle Hogan, Director of Special Programs Wetzel County Schools, 333 Foundry Street., New Martinsville, WV 26155, within 10 days of the publication.

What a beautiful and inspiring opening for Hundred Heritage School! Mr. Wilkins gave a heartfelt and uplifting speech that set the tone for this special day. The school itself is absolutely breathtaking, from the welcoming first floor to the bright and modern second floor, every detail shows the care that went into making this a place for students to learn and grow. And the Makerspace? Words can’t even do it justice! It’s a space full of creativity, innovation, and opportunities that our kids are going to fall in love with from day one. 💡🎨🛠️ A huge shoutout to Principal Kelch and the entire staff for their hard work, dedication, and vision. Their efforts have created not just a building, but a home for learning, friendship, and community pride. Here’s to an exciting future for Hundred Heritage School and the amazing students who will make memories here for years to come! 💙❤️
